Most of the time we can construct a linguistic interpretation of our awareness of patterns.

Interesting. I almost can see, or envision, the 'shape' of logical relationships in an argument or discussion. Not quite, but I intuit or sense a spatial relationship between various assertions and proposition.
Similarly, when I'm thinking of the passage of the days of the week and months of the year, they seem to have have temperature, color, and metallic/nonmetallic properties. And sometimes I envision the passage of time as moving--actually, rotating on a large wheel--in my mind.
